10 August highlights

Buckley ran three sessions at Anglia Karting alongside Bonnie Herbert. The first two built up the pace — bests of 20.257s and 20.172s — before the third and final session produced a personal best of 19.919s, his first lap ever under 20 seconds. He beat his own running best 5 times inside that final session (20.359s → 20.218s → 20.175s → 19.952s → 19.919s), with 6 laps under 20.2s in total.

19 August highlights

Five head-to-head sessions against Nojus Sadauskas, with pace building steadily across the day. The fifth and final session produced a personal best of 19.892s — beating the 10 August record by 0.027s — in his tightest and most consistent stretch of the day. The head-to-head with Nojus stayed razor close: 2 wins each way and one loss by just 0.008s.

23 August highlights

Four sessions against a new field — Henry Clark, Charlie Trotter and Tyler Smith, with a bigger 7-driver field in the final session. A new outright personal best of 19.847s came in the third session, his longest and most consistent of the day at 22 laps. The final session — the biggest field of the day with 7 drivers — ended in Buckley's third race win.

6 September highlights

Three sessions against a six-driver field — Layne Eagle, Finlay McErleane, Logan Lillicrop, Charlie Worrall and Leo Piggott. The second session produced a personal best of 19.576s at the time — beating the 23 August record by 0.271s, his biggest single jump since the original sub-20 breakthrough, with 8 of 18 laps under 20 seconds. The final session came close to matching it at 19.608s.

27 September highlights

Four sessions against Charlie Trotter, Cohen West, Caleb Culwick and newcomer Jenson Traveller. Pace built steadily across the day — 19.976s, 19.740s, 19.577s — before the fourth and final session produced a new outright personal best of 19.529s, beating the 6 September record by 0.047s. Three of the four sessions today were in Kart 6, which now accounts for 6 of his top-10 fastest sessions ever.

13 September highlights

Three cadet club sessions against a new field — Fletcher Hastings, Russell Lumpkin, Caleb Culwick, Leo Piggott, Charlie Worrall and Layne Eagle. Best lap of the day was 19.666s in the third session, again in Kart 6 — his third-fastest lap of the season and just 0.09s off the outright record.

20 September highlights

Session 2 produced the fastest lap of that session for Buckley at 19.981s, ahead of Callum Tester, Caleb Culwick, Logan Lillicrop and Douglas Pitt. Session 4 was a position race — Buckley completed his 15 laps first, taking his fourth race win of the season.

Outdoor testing

Buckley has also completed his first outdoor karting session at Lakeside Karting, recording a best lap of 66.539s against a mixed field of drivers on a longer, outdoor circuit layout.
